Report Details Top of Excel Export

Joese

Hi there, So i can get the export to work no worries. However i need to have some basic meta data above the table in the export. What i need is in the first 3 cells of the page it says something like:

Report: Name Of Report
Exported: 25th Nov
Filtered By: Name

<Datatable>

I have searched the forum, but i could find how to do this simple change

Any help would be awesome, Thanks

You can use "title" and "messageTop" for this as described here: https://datatables.net/reference/button/excelHtml5
This will give you two lines above your table.

Those lines can be formatted as you like also dynamically depending on the user, datetime or whatever you have.

Here is an example (not exactly the same but almost): https://datatables.net/forums/discussion/comment/116630/#Comment_116630
